Mir s. W. Barnes is making com bined business and pleasure trip through the west, and visiting friends at various points on the route. He will stay awhile in Salt Lake City, but we don't believe "He's gwine to jine the Mormons, yet Jimmy Lshae will probably think Sher1- dan is s'gone entirely" as he wrote us Sept 14th, from Waukesha, Wis, as follows eff you want quantity of boneset or golden rod for greens will give you an order on W.

 Now is the time and the Berkshire Store at Ct Burlington is the place to buy carpets at a bargain. Jack Frost is prowling around Litchfield county as we'll as Berkshire county, but you can prepare for his visits by replenishing your wardrobe from the assortment of winter goods mentioned to-day in Mir Hollister's new advertisement. Those who have committed matrimony, or are about to do so, should not forget that housekeeping goods are sold at the Berkshire Store.
 Quite an amusing incident occurred at the depot one morning last week A young cigar drummer from Albany, wanted to get morning paper after the H. R. R. train had started, so he gave the signal and stopped the train, bought his paper of the newsboy and then coolly walked over to the H. < c. W. side and took the train for the east.

 Cupid has recently aimed his ar rows at the press and has scored some good shots, as the marriage column proves. Our esteemed bachelor friend Editor Bolles of the New Milford Gaze tte. has been in the habit of placing heavy black lines each side of the marriage notices in his paper. It sug- gested the idea of mourning, but those who deemed Bolles confirmed old bachelor were not aware that all the time he was singing to himself.
 s'This is theway I long have sought, And mourned because found it not.'
 Rainbow tints, gilt, or rose-colored lines will hereafter doubtless be substi- tuted for said heavy black lines in the Gazette. We tender congratulations te our editorial friend and his charming bride, and we trust they will forgive us for venturing the remark that mos newly married couples are only two cups filled with joy, but in this instance it is two Bozes filled with joy.
